The sun is shining, but it's a bit chilly outside... Time to put on the tights ladies!! Don't rush to put away those mini skirts or spring dresses. Just add a pair of tights and a boyfriend cardi, and you are one chic girl. Black opaque tights have been walking the streets since the early 60's, and have graduated into all colors and textures. These 'leggy wonders' can lead way to an ultra edgy outfit, or a miraculously longer, slimmer looking leg (Yes please!)! Wear matching color tights and boots (ex: black tights, black boots) to create a long, sleek line. Throw on a mini with tights, and bypass the thought...'Is this skirt too short??' Feeling a little "Punky Brewster-ish?" Put on your favorite pair of bright colored tights to add the funk! Some of my favorite colored tight/colored shoes combinations are black tights with grey, or bright green shoes, mustard tights with brown/black shoes, and grey tights with pink or a funky animal print shoe. The goal is to have fun and play with color..... be bold!!
